Booklet comprised of an article originally published in "Fortune magazine" under the title "Issei, Nesei and Kibei," with illustrations by Mine Okubo.

The Japanese American Relocation Collection is composed of ephemera related to the relocation program during World War II. Items include the official government report of Manzanar Relocation Center, a photo album, post-war activism materials related to preserving and remembering the camps, various clippings, and documents. The strength of this collection is found in its many perspectives on the controversial relocation program and how it has been presented since World War II.
